Szeth's Facepalm Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) Edit: this was originally my inktober, but it has most of my recent art and i don't really go back to my old art thread cause... well i don't have a reason. That's fine. Original: I said I wasn't gonna make one of these, but i'm actually doing Inktober daily (which i didn't expect) and really enjoying it! Here are all the prompt lists i'm doing (so far i've only used the official prompts though): Spoiler Here's all the drawings so far: Day one: Gargoyle. I did Blue from The Raven Cycle, as she is at the beginning of chapter one (it describes her as a "restless, sightless gargoyle" so i thought it was fitting). Spoiler Day two: scurry. I didn't really do anything for that day because i was working hard on a different art piece (one of Kal and Szeth fighting). So here's what ya get: Spoiler Day three: bat. I was gonna draw the bat from Anastasia cause he's funny, but then i remembered that bats can also be baseball bats, so here's Steve Harrington (from Stranger Things): Spoiler Day four: scallop. This one is my favorite so far! It's my favorite OC, Iyaden (don't tell the others) in a dress with a scalloped neckline. It's a bit out of character for her, but i'm cooking up a little bit if a traumatic backstory for her, so she gets a cute drawing. Spoiler I've already drawn tomorrow's prompt (Flame, for both official and cosmere inktober) but i'll wait till tomorrow to share lol.

Szeth's Facepalm Posted October 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) Day five: Flame. this one's a combo of every prompt except the Raven one, cause both the cosmere and the official prompt is flame, and it's a character from The Magnus Archives. It's Agnes Montegue: Spoiler I won't explain exactly what she is (spoiler territory) but just know she's pretty Flamey.

He's one of my favorite characters Steve all the way! Day six: i'm using both the official and cosmere prompt today, Bouquet and Miscreant. It's Wayne (i've been meaning to draw him, and miscreant could be a way to describe him lol) with flowers! Here he is: Spoiler It didn't turn out exactly Wayne-ish, but i still like it. Here's the process (all the cool kids are doing it lol): Spoiler First a little sketchy with a Target Up & Up brand mechanical pencil (i always use that specific kind of pencil. The lead is just right.) to get everything in the right place. I do a circle and then lines for the head/chin, and i find using circles for the shoulders helps get the shape of them right: Next i do firmer lines and do the hair n stuff at the top of the body: Then i get the outline all the way done, and make the lines clear: Sometimes i stop there, plus a bit of tidying it up, but i've been having a lot of fun inking in and coloring, so next i draw over it with a Micron 01 pen, wait for it to dry, and erase the pencil lines. Sometimes i do that after i color it in, like in day four's picture, and i don't have particularly strong feelings about either, both ways work for me. Anyway i forgot to take a picture of just the plain ink lines, so here's it partially colored in: I just use crayola pencils and press down really hard while i'm coloring. It always works out pretty well, i think, though there are sometimes weird lines (like on the hat). And then it's done! There's relatively less going on in this one than usual. I might do another process with a more complicated one. Edited October 7, 2022 by Szeth's Facepalm I wrote day five instead of day six lol 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szeth's Facepalm Posted October 8, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2022 I missed yesterday :( Here's a low-ish quality (but still better than the first haha) re-do of day two using the Magnus Archives prompt that i did a couple days ago instead: Spoiler It's Michael Shelly :D (it's fanon that he has huge wonky hands, so his hand is sort of supposed to look like that, though i should have made it bigger cause it looks a little more like limp noodles than i'd hoped ;-;) I also didn't really do anything for today either, but a few days ago i redrew the drawings i did back in March of the main characters of the Magnus Archives, and since they are together i think it counts for match. I think it's cool to see the seven month progress: Spoiler Yeah jon gets a skirt lol. Anyway i'm probably gonna draw a lot tomorrow (though i may end up just working on my Halloween costume, idk) so maybe i'll do yesterday's and todays then. And tomorrow's hopefully. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So. Here is the Ravenstober day 8 prompt (it would be spoilers for book 1 of the raven cycle but i just won't tell you who the character is and you'll be fine): Spoiler I drew different eyes than usual, and it turned out pretty good for a side profile, i think. For yesterday's Cosmere prompt, Silhouette, here's a doodle from my vent book which turned out kinda cool: Spoiler I'l probably re-draw some version of that in my sketchbook. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morningtide she/her Posted October 14, 2022 Report Share Posted October 14, 2022 They both look incredible! Spoiler Noah is literally the best ever. But so are all characters from the Raven Cycle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hide contents Noah is literally the best ever. But so are all characters from the Raven Cycle. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH (Spoilers) Spoiler Every time i read "then he slipped out of time" (it's close to that i'm sure) i cry so hardddd D: he deserved so much better imo. But i'm rereading dream theives (cause i'm trying to make an animation storyboard of the part where gansy comes downstairs and ronan dreamt a night terror. Even though i can't animate. But i'll save the storyboard for when i can :D) and i love the part where Noah and blue are at Monmouth together, i always laugh so hard when they kiss lmao. Anyway I completely gave up on inktober Here's some cool drawings instead: Spoiler Nico di angelo (spoilers for House of Hades kinda. And also hidden oracle? Idk. Not that bad. But proceed with caution i guess) Spoiler Here's a portrait i did using different mediums than usual (it's not anyone in particular but it kind of reminds me of Adam Parrish from The Raven Cycle): Spoiler Idk how i feel about it, especially the lips (i hate the lips bro) but it was really fun to draw, and cause of the pink pen it looks really cool in sunlight. OC drawing (her name is Viola, this is the first time i've actually buckled down and canonized her appearance): Spoiler Here are some dreamer trilogy characters: Spoiler (Yes i put no effort into the little head next to the kid with earphones. Bryde for anyone wondering.) Spoilers for Greywaren (so basically @ Morningtide lol): Spoiler it's everyone who i thought was dead/going to die/died, including the covered up one who is ronan, cause i thought maybe he was gonna die ;-; But the only casualty was Lilliana of course. I liked her and was sad, but, you know. Gotta be glad maggie let Matthew come back to life and didn't kill adam. (That would have been. Very very bad. Obviously.) And here's one of my favorite scenes from greywaren (i would say spoilers but there's no context so it's probably ok.) Content warning for blood splatters and a gun (i pretty much never draw that stuff and despise that sort of violence, but this scene was cool and badass af. I CAN BEND MY MORALS SOMETIMES OK) @ Morningtide before you look (spoilers) Spoiler Yes i am aware that the elevator at the fairy market would probably not have a paper sign taped above it that says "sweetmetals." Idk why i put it there. I was at early morning seminary, don't judge. It's chapter 27 just fyi Actual drawing (yes finally): Spoiler It's messier than usual but i fricking love it. NOW GO READ THE RAVEN CYCLE AND THEN THE DREAMER TRILOGY SO YOU CAN GET CONTEXT.

Szeth's Facepalm Posted November 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2022 (I'm just gonna use this as my regular art thread now) Here's a scene from chapter seven of Blue Lilly Lilly Blue (book three of The Raven Cycle, no spoilers DOOMIE) Spoiler RIP anyone who hasn't read the books trying to figure out what room it is lol (my dignity would not allow me to search "toilet drawing reference" so that is why the toilet looks like that...) Also I just realized i forgot to draw Gansy's boat shoes :( 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szeth's Facepalm Posted November 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2022 Nino's pizza!! (From, you guessed it, The Raven Cycle lol.) Spoiler Sorry about the lighting ;-; (and the pizza on the wall is a clock, not just a random wall pizza lol). I showed this to my little sister and she just said "hmmm they look kind of like blocks and they're too skinny" so rip. I didn't use a reference at all for any of the people, just the booth, so plz excuse their blockyness lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szeth's Facepalm Posted November 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2022 Our school art assignment was to draw someone using a renaissance sculpture as a reference, and i think mine turned out quite nice: Spoiler I used to be able to draw stuff like that in 1-2 hours with just a phone sized reference (but with colored pencils instead of shading lol) and i think i lost that skill :( this is better, but it took me 2 and a half art classes and i used a grid and a printed out reference of the same size. I gotta practice with faces more. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szeth's Facepalm Posted December 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) Here's a random Annabeth (from pjo of course): Spoiler I made it cause i was mad at my little sister because she's always super scathing of anything i draw and show to her, and she drew Annabeth and totally copied my style, and i love annabeth with all my heart (we all do i'm sure) and was feeling petty so i drew one that was way better than Little Sis's. (She had only insults for it when she looked upon it even though hers was way worse ;-;) And here are some random doodles from my school notebook that i assume to be Achilles and Patroclus (i don't remember drawing them but they look like them and also are kinda good): Spoiler I like the way i did Achille's head a lot.
